The Light In The Darkness

Looks fine by me!

No Escape For Us (PRIVATE RP)

Here's what I got.. Sorry if it isn't to your standards!

The Light In The Darkness

Hello to those reading this! Welcome! Welcome to the RP! This is a medieval fantasy RP where you can make your character, their race, and their story. All of these characters will be tied together as one group ((If you wish that is)) with a common enemy. Alliances will be forced and alliances will be broken... But tread carefully, you are depending on each other to return home successfully and free the realm of it's dark fate.

The Light In The Darkness

The light in the darkness
"Great Heroes Carry The Journey's Burdens Not On Their Shoulders, But In Their Hearts" (Armello)

It was suppose to be a year of prosperity in the realm of Auirlus where peace was to be at it's highest point. The races that once interacted among each other are now separated by war and a new rising threat, the threat of darkness. It is unknown what has caused it to infect the land and how to necessarily stop it, but one thing is for sure it could ensure the destruction of every clan or kingdom if nothing was done.

This curse... It has destroyed towns and flattened villages ever since it's birth. The primary focus of it's vile stretch though is the lands of the human people. There, the king has been infected by this disease, and unknown, dark monsters strike the walls every week. It was then, despite their disagreements or their racial profile, individuals of many titles now band together to save the humans and their king. Little do they know, there is something bigger, more treacherous being planned with the use of this new curse.

What is known

There is a bond between a series of individuals known as the circle. Those within have taken a vow to stand tall against evil and darkness, even when others have fled.

With chaos out and about, banditry is at an all time high. You would be surprised if you spotted an unarmed trader during these times.

There are few who have created cults and have made it their responsibility to spread this sickening curse. They are easily identified by the dark cloaks they wear and the skulls they use as masks. What skull they use varies, but when you are trapped and captured by this threat... The ritual will commence... And your past self will fall to the darkness.

Those who are infected/cursed are stuck in an internal war with the dark itself. Two things can happen: either you give into it's influence, or you die after weeks or even months of agony. Option one can be forced onto victims by the use of a ritual ((which cults and followers of the darkness try to use)) Once you have given into the influence you become stronger and more powerful, but your mind also becomes corrupted, your internal self becoming bound in chains while this new influence takes over and causes destruction. Nothing good can come from this evil thing, which is why it is the target and antagonist of this story.

The infected ones have a Dark Pattern That branches out from the source of where the curse was administrated. It weakens them when it takes over a significant part of one's body. It is when it consumes your whole body, where the dilemma be set: Suffer till death or submit to the demon inside.

A cure has not been found, only a prophecy which will be these group of heroes chase down in search for that cure.

Rules!

1. No arguing, flaming, or any of that hate on this OOC. If there is an issue confront your local GM and or CoGM to resolve it!
2. No God modding, and no gary/mary sues gibberish whatever. Your character has skills! But they are NOT the all knowing being sent to this earth.. That's where teamwork might come into play!
3. The posts will be limited in most situations. No 1x1s please.
4. There can and might be a fear factor in place for this RP. You are dealing with the dark, after all...
5. I as the GM shall claim the GM Spot and say I have the ability to alter/change/you know.. Enforce ze rules!
6. Any Ideas will be taken! Just PM then or pop them up in the OOC ^.^
7. VOID!

Other things! Yay!:

My CSs (yaay)

Name: Feress Levanth
Age: ???
Race: Kitsune
Title: The Lantern Holder
Occupation: Used to be merely a traveler, now he is one of the primary researchers in the search to find a cure to this plague.
History: Ansen is a strange little creature who lived his child hood in an enchanted forest like many others before him. He was always up to no good, terrorizing and playing with those who wandered into his turf while plotting mischief against his fellow kitsunes. When news of the darkness arrived, the little one set off to travel and explore the darkness. Now, he has returned, with a possible solution to this nightmare... This time, though, he turns to the humans so to keep his people out of the fray.
Equipment and weapons: Stave, Backpack, Books!, Apples, Canteen of water, Rope, Green Cloak, A pan, Flint and tinder, and last but not least: a alchemy set wrapped in cloth so to keep the vials from shattering
Other: He wears an emblem around his neck that has a paw print on a piece of wood, It is suggested for all within to the circle to have an emblem as well, but it is not mandatory
Appearance: Keep in mind of the equipment such as ze cloak!

Name: Ansen Grayson
Age: 38
Race: Cianid
Titles: General, Guardian
Occupation: He used to lead as a general, but stepped down in order to join the circle.
History: A man or... Beastman with leadership, Ansen has become an influence to his people. He has done his best to ensure their safety and has made his calls to administer their name into the realm. Many praised him, followed him, and fought under his name, but all of that was left behind when he joined the humans. Some criticized him for it and others praised him for such integrity, in the end though he was released to do as he wish after some violent sessions that debated whether to kill him for abandoning his post or let him go. It is easily known though that some people don't want him to return so to keep their newly found nobility and rank. Few will even try to make sure he dies before his journey is over.

Now without his high title, all Ansen can do now is help the humans with training and strategies, that was before he became apart of the circle. He currently waits for the others along with the kitsune, wiping down his sword as they prepared for the journey ahead... Unbenknownst to the veterans and newcomers, something had occured to Ansen that could greately endanger him during this adventure.

Equipment: Sword, Tabard, Bandage wraps (Used for his hands and ankles) Bow and Arrow, a hat!, Three Throwing Knives, Satchel (Containing more knives, papers, bandages, string for his bow, and herbs), Canteen, Sharpening stone [In Satchel], Quiver held to his back by a strap which he tucks his bow under for travel

Appearance: His quiver and bow are at his back ready for use, and his sword is by his side which is concealed under the cloak until the cloak is taken off or the weapon is drawn. Of course his clothes are not torn apart silly! ((Bandages are used as improvised fingerless gloves and footwear since the pawish structure is an issue for typical footwear)) Beneath his clothing are a series of scars which tell the tales of his life in war, his upper body is bandaged, it hides a stab wound as well as a dark glowing tattoe pattern... The same pattern that consumes the king. [[That blond hair has to go.]]
Other (Potential Spoiler at the bottom) :
Wears an Emblem attached to his necklace to identify himself with the circle (Bottom right symbol)

How about something medieval fantasy?

This was the first thing said about this new idea. I dunno if you guys wanna change that but I kinda wrote everything based off a medieval fantasy mindset >.>

EDIT: I have everything ready. But I can not start if we're doing a last minute time period change... No matter what is said. I'll have to scrap and try to compromise and/or start all over.

No Escape For Us (PRIVATE RP)
